Episode Details

SEC commissioner Greg Sankey stands as the only barrier to Tony Petitti’s push for a 24-team College Football Playoff. Could the postseason be on the brink of chaos? Craig Shemon breaks down why fans—and the SEC—are pushing back against a format that could water down regular season drama and threaten iconic rivalries like Michigan vs. Ohio State.  All the while realizing the that college football playoff expansion is inevitable!

Key topics include the motivations behind the ACC, Big 12, and Notre Dame’s call for expansion, the financial stakes of conference championship games, and Greg Sankey’s preference for a 16-team model. Craig Shemon also explores how college football playoff expansion could reshape job security for SEC coaches like Kirby Smart, and what it means for traditional college football powerhouses. Plus, insights on Penn State’s mishandling of quarterback Drew Allar and the latest Big Ten baseball power rankings. Can tradition survive college football’s relentless march toward a bigger playoff?
